TREO Engineering is introducing three non-powered subwoofer enclosures based around the TSX and SSi subwoofer drivers. Designed for 'drop-in' applications, they're covered with TreoHyde polymer-based coating and feature aluminum mounting baffles, five-way binding posts and engraved logos. The trio of TREO boxes are configurable to one ohm or four ohm operation without rewiring. HotBox10 and HotBox12 feature dual TSX drivers, while the StreetBox12 utilizes one SSi subwoofer driver.

TREO Engineering today has announced the move from Englewood, Colorado to Omaha, Nebraska. Previously TREO Engineering operated out of facilities in both cities. The consolidation of both facilities made economic sense with the addition of a new 10,000 square foot building in Omaha.
TREO Engineering today has announced a new management team.

Henry is a two-time dB Drag Racing Overall SPL record holder and four-time Extreme 9-12 Champion, winning the coveted Extreme Cup in 1998 and 2000 before retiring from the SPL competition scene. Paul Gruidel will assume the position of Company Controller and Wayne Manion will remain Technical Director. Chuck Dixon will take over as head of North American Production.

Chris Williams and his 2001 Ford Focus ZX3 took home the top prize in the 151-300 Pro Stock class at the 2002 USACi World Finals held November 23-24, 2002 in Kansas City, MO. He used two TREO Engineering CSX15 subwoofers to post a score of 151.2 dB, which was the best score of the weekend in his class. Word from Chris is that the car is good for 163+ dB on a Version 3 microphone.
Chris's car features a Pioneer Premier 840MP CD/MP3 player (there was an Alpine unit in the car at Finals), two MMATS D100HC amplifiers and two TREO Engineering CSX15.15 SPL competition subwoofers in a 6.5 ft^3 painted fiberglass enclosure.

German Competitors Team BS of Walkertshofen, Germany brought their vehicle to
Nashville, Tennessee for dB Drag Racing World Finals and obliterated the competition
at the 2002 dB Drag Racing World Finals. Their mark of 177.6 decibels (dB) was nearly
two decibels louder than the previous record, also set by Team BS at the dB Drag Racing
European Finals on October 4, 2002 in Bern, Switzerland. Led by Wolfgang Fischer, the
team is made up of twelve hobbyists from Germany. Wolfgang Fischer, Roger Jesse, Robert
Schmid, Jochen Resch, Jörg Völkl, and Manfred Burkhard made the journey to America, and
Joachim Hössle, Peter Unterreiner, Bernd Fischer, Schigg Gerhard, Stefan Magerl, and
Gerolf Owesle remained in Germany during the show.

Team BS poses with their VW Type III Extreme 13+ Van
|
Team BS used a highly modified Volkswagen Type III fitted with bullet-proof glass and a
cabin strengthened with steel, wood, and concrete. Their van tips the scales at
approximately 14,000 pounds (approximately 6300 kilograms). Team BS used sixteen TREO
Engineering CSX12.09X subwoofers and sixty-four Directed 1100d amplifiers running on a
sixteen volt electrical system. Team BS estimates 100,000 watts of amplifier power was
on tap in their van. Many other competitors at the World Finals were using quad voice
coil subwoofers, but Team BS used dual voice coil subwoofers to set their steel-bending
SPL record.
Team BS took home the crown in dB Drag Racing’s Extreme 13+ class by recording a 177.6
dB score on their final run. The second place team, Team Pure Sounds of Ozark, Missouri
recorded a score of 175.0 dB. In the realm of dB Drag Racing Extreme vehicles, 2.7 dB is
a wide margin. In their previous run Team BS had recorded a score of 177.7 dB.
Team BS won the coveted dB Drag Racing Extreme Cup. The Extreme Cup is a perpetual trophy
that is awarded to the dB Drag Racing Association's overall World Record holder each season.
"It takes a tremendous amount of time, energy, and money to build a vehicle of this caliber,"
said Wayne Harris, president and founder of the dB Drag Racing Association. "This trophy is
intended to recognize that effort." TREO Engineering is extremely proud of Team BS for taking
home the Extreme Cup and winning the very competitive Extreme 13+ class. What is truly amazing
is that these achievements were possible so soon after Team BS first started using TREO.
Within these past 90 days, they were able to beat their own personal best score, and then go
on to win the German, European, and dB Drag Racing World Finals with a world record!
For the third consecutive year no TREO Engineering subwoofers failed in the competition lanes
at dB Drag Racing World Finals. Even Team BS’s woofers, taking over 6,000 watts per speaker
were able to take the power with no failures. Team BS also used the woofers in the five-minute
Deathmatch competition. Deathmatch is the most grueling type of SPL competition and it is not
uncommon for every amplifier and speaker in a vehicle to fail while going for the sought after
Deathmatch trophy. Team BS did not have any equipment failures in the Deathmatch. Unbelievably,
Team BS used the same speakers at dB Drag Racing German Finals, dB Drag Racing European Finals,
dB Drag Racing World Finals, and the Deathmatch. Craig Smith, Vice President of Zooss
International who handles international sales and technical support for TREO Engineering calls
this “A great testament to the reliability, performance, and durability of TREO Engineering
subwoofers.”
TREO Engineering is proud to announce the completion of its Street Series Extreme (SSX) line of subwoofers. The TREO Engineering SSX subwoofers are intended to be the world’s loudest street bass subwoofer. They take many of the same technologies used in the championship winning TREO Engineering Competition Series Extreme (CSX) SPL competition subwoofers and translate it into great-sounding subwoofers that will stand up to any kind of abuse.
The SSX12.22 features a massive thirty-three pound motor structure, 3.0 inch dual two ohm aluminum voice coils, and a TREO-exclusive ultra-stiff penta-fiber cone. The SSX15.22 and SSX18.22 feature the same penta-fiber cone along with mind-blowing forty-three pound motor structures and 4.0 inch dual two ohm aluminum voice coils. All SSX subwoofers feature cast aluminum frames with TREO-exclusive perimeter venting and durable and attractive polished nickel top plates and T-yokes. Power handling on the SSX12.22 is 1800 watts RMS and power handling on the SSX15.22 and SSX18.22 is 2400 watts RMS. The SSX15.22 and SSX18.22 boast 4 inches of peak-to-peak excursion.
The SSX15.22 and SSX18.22 have been shipping since January 2002, but the addition of the SSX12.22 completes the line. The SSX10.22 has been cancelled.

Ed Koski of El Dorado Springs, Missouri set a MECA World Record at MECA World Finals October 9-10,
2002 in Shepherdsville, KY. Ed used two TREO Engineering CSX15.22 subwoofers and two U.S.Amps 2000X
amplifiers in a Nissan Hardbody truck to set a new MECA Drive By Sound Pressure Level (DBSPL) record.
Ed scored 127.6 decibels (dB) driving by a microphone at a distance of six feet. Koski was over two
decibels louder than the second place finisher. Hats off to Ed and his shop Koski Enterprises for
their great achievement. Ed really is pounding the pavement!
Ed Koski also finished third in the very competitive M5 class with a score of 154.7 dB. The two
competitors who finished ahead of Ed had at least double the available amplifier power.
